The Grayling Vikings hosted round 2 with the Gaylord Blue Devil freshman basketball team Friday night at the Grayling Middle School, with the Blue Devils beating the Vikings by a 64-44 score.  In the first meeting before Christmas break in Gaylord, a close first half was broken open in the 2nd half as Gaylord cruised to a victory, and this night would be much of the same.  At the half, the Blue Devils held a slim 31-27 lead, but in the 3rd quarter they held the Vikings to 0 points and scored 13 of their own to take a 44-27 lead into the 4th quarter held it the rest of the way.  Each team came into the game with 1-loss, so these are two pretty good freshman teams in Northern Michigan.  Gaylord takes the court next Tuesday as they make the road trip to Ogemaw Heights.
